So for a long time now I've been collecting a bunch of Lore information to aid our org in RP dialogue. I call it "Casual Lore," which is any Lore I consider "Common Knowledge." We all know what Pepsi and Coke are, we all know who The Beatles are, MOST of us know who our President/Prime Minister/Overlord is, so for conversational purposes, I started collecting all those kinds of tidbits so that we can bring it up casually in conversation to help with immersion and sounding like we're actually existing within the Star Citizen Universe! I'll be posting several iterations of these, and if you have anything to add to the list, let me know! ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- UEE(United Earth Empire) NOTE: Political Parties Universal - Institution-focused ideology. Government and systems will guide the people. Seen by some as a blue-blood, wealth-based ideology. Centralist - Traditional even somewhat libertarian-styled political ideology. It’s about sustaining and maintaining the status quo, and excelling through the values of humanity. Embrace the past, be proud of where you came from, etc. Needless to say, they support keeping Earth as the capital. Transitionalists (Transits) - Relatively recent “People’s Party” formed around promoting a progressive human agenda. Most of their rhetoric is aimed towards “the future.” They obviously support Terra as the center of the UEE Current Imperator: Kelos Costigan House Speaker: Marshall Madrigal(U-Borea-Magnus Sys) Senate Seats: -Edward Aemile(C-Aremis-Vega Sys) - Ghata Veras (C-Lo-Corel Sys) -Hideo Uto (C – Severus – Kiel Sys) -Kyle Polo (Croshaw[former]) -Janna Thurville (T - Severus - Kiel Sys) -Mira Ngo(T-Terra-Terra Sys) -Rachel Lester (T – Vann – Croshaw Sys) -Sean Debinavi (U - Angeli - Croshaw Sys) -Suj Kossi(? - Jalan - Elysium Sys) - First Tevarin Senator -Turson Haskel(U - Asura - Ferron Sys) -Tracey Glenn(U-Saisei-Centurai Sys) -Victor Skovria(C – Earth – Sol Sys) -Will McCain (U – Cestulus – Davien Sys) - Windel Aurelia (MORE INFO NEEDED) - Yann Isher (MORE INFO NEEDED) -Yori Co(C-Green-Ellis Sys) Xi'An Empire Current Leader: Emperor U.e’o se Kr.ē Notable Figures: SUNATH OF THE TORRAL: .ē sen S.un’ath se T.or’al. - Director Of Human Operations for the company Torral Aggregate PERRY LINE: A 'no man's land' set of systems bordering human and Xi'An space. They consist of: Tohil, Oya, Pallas, Gurzil, Hadur, Indra, Virtus and Horus -The Perry Line is still used to reference the area, but technically the 'guard' that was needed there has been mostly dissolved, besides the regular security and checkpoint needs between empires Banu Run by Republic of Planet-States. The Banu also have large council meetings(name?) whenever matters regarding the entire collective come at hand. Each owner of a company or planet is called a Soolie(spelling check needed). When making deals, it's important to go through the proper Soolie of the region Tevarin Formerly a warrior-caste race, now borderline Endangered and destitute. Species has been absorbed into the UEE.
